What is the most reliable unlimited ISP?

Its a big question, I know.

All of the UK ISP's sound like they are pretty naff, but I've had as
much as I can take with AOL's intermittent rubbish.

I'm a heavy usenet user and want the best deal possible. Most seem to
impose fair usage in the small print and some (Like AOL) do it, but
won't admit to it.

Any recommendations?

Unless you want to pay a premium price I'm afraid they all do it now.

2MB totally unlimited, unthrottled un-anything is not a premium price
in my book. www.ukfsn.org even does a 2MB with 448 upload for the same
price.

Top notch performance and CS.

I really piss myself laughing when I hear the Tiscali unlimited ads.
The poor bloke has to rush through all the 'small print' stuff at the
end about FUPs etc.

you're quoting the Max products, the other guy was on about fixed
speed 2M. I can't see use over say 100 GB/month being tolerated on
that either.
